Brooch It

Goooood morning! So, getting back into the homeschool-teaching saddle this week has been anything but seamless. After two weeks off, I seem to have forgotten how much I have to fit in to the day – my word! Every other minute, I’m all like, Oh, yeah. Wait. We’re supposed to do thaaat now. After…. the

Swang that Frange

Ok. So, the truth is, I was just looking for a new moto jacket. Not a fringe moto jacket. But I came across this one in my search, and I was suddenly all like, “Oh. I think I need this?” Not really a question, though. But I did feel slightly unsure, because fringe jackets have always

The Good Life

Happy New Year!! I’ve been thinking about this past year a lot, lately. Because we lost our beloved Grandpa in October, it would be easy to think, what a horrible year, glad it’s over, and hoping for a better one, but that would be kind of ridiculous. That would discount the entire rest of the

Like a Fox

Faux fur scarves are my jam, right now. Such an easy layering piece that can instantly winterize an outfit, and add interesting texture, plus a li’l drama. I re-linked some of my favorites for ya, below! Drawstring Top: Banana Republic | Military Blazer: Banana Republic | Jeans: Banana Republic | Midi Boot: BCBGeneration | Fringe

Fair Isle

It isn’t truly winter until ya wear some fair isle. Am I right? Or am I right. I wore this on that magical, gingerbread-house-competition night we had last week, and really regretted my shoe choice when I saw how hard it was snowing when we got there! It all worked out in the end, though,

Christmas Eve

You know how Facebook shows you a memory you shared on this day, a certain number of years ago? Well, the one they showed me this morning made me snort. It was of my firstborn’s Christmas Eve performance when she was two. It took me a minute to figure out where she was – all

Home for the Holidays + Always

I love being on holiday!! No lesson planning, teaching, multi-tasking four littles’ school schedules all morning and afternoon! I’m free as a bird, kind of!! Yesterday was amazing. I slept in until 7am, finished up some wrapping, and promptly ordered 8 or 9 more gifts that I realized I was lacking (THANK YOU Amazon Prime!!!!), and

Midis + Merry Mix-ups

Mixed things up a bit for church this past, blustery Sunday! Mixed some prints, and dared to pair navy and black (gasp!). It’s okayyy, really. For some reason, pairing navy and black is the scariest thing for a lot of my clients, but trust me. It’s really okay. Everything is going to be okay if

Citrus + Grey

Another color combo, today! Going for neon brights with all this snowy weather we’ve been getting (which I am super giddy about!). I love, love, love this neon citrus hue – it’s like wearing the sunshine. 😉 Hard not to feel cheerful in it!  I kept everything else simple, in muted grey, to let the

Color Combo: Rust + Red

Talkin’ wide leg pants + color combos, today (my favorite!!). Trying to wear current runway trends can be scary, but going for some fresh, runway color combinations is the eeeeeasiest way to “update” your style game. Wear your same classic pieces, but in fresh new color pairings. And walla! You’re fashionably current. Now. The wide leg pant.
